The Tombstone Democrat attempts
a refutation OF our statement that the
appropriation bills passed by the
Fourteenth Legislature and signed by
The Governor on the morning a
o'clock of the sixty-frst day, is illegal
because of its not becoming a law
within thepreseribed time. The Dem
oerat contends that the sixty days al
lowed by law for the sitting of the
Legislature should be reckoned from
the hour that that body convened, 1t
illustrates its view by repeating part
of a story, which appeared in the BELT
several weeks ago, of Thos. Il, Benton
oGecting to the prolonging Of the
SESSION of the U. S. Senate after mid
night of the last day, and how Sena-
tor Orr, in the chair, sllenced Benton
by ordering the Sergeant.at-Arms to
remove him from the Aoor, since he
claimed that his term as Senator had
expired; the inference sought to be
conveyed being that Benton aoknowl-
edged his discontinue, which, how
ever, was not the case as Benton
claimed the privilege Of remaining as
an Ex-MEMBER, a part of the story
which the Democrat found it eonve-
nient to omit. There was discus
sion among the members Of the late
legislature as to the legality Of con-
tinulng the session after midnight and
as an evidence that grave doubts were
entertained upon the question the
clock OF one Of the houses was set
back and that in the other chamber
had grown weary and stopped some
days before. Members, too, found it
ineonyeuient to consult their time
pieces.
Twenty-four hours, from midnight
to midnight, is the common accepta-
zion of what is known as day, Web
ster says; Thus with us the day when
a legal instrument is dated, begins
and ends at midnight. Blackstone
fixes legal day as the space Of tune
which elapses bgt8een two Successive
midnights, fractions Of day are not
recognized in law.

Great interest Is already being man
ifestsd BY the people Of st. Louis in
the National Encampment Of the
Grand Army Of the Republic, to oc-
cur in that city extseptember. Sub
scription papers to raise fund TO de-
fray the expenses Of the celebration,
were circulated for the first time on
the 18th inst. and the result Of the
days work was gratifying, to the
committee in charge, beyond their
most sanguine expectations, showing
the handsome total Of $4,000. This
is certainly refutatlon Of the charge
assiduously circulated through sbe
press Of jealous rival cities, that ST.
Louis people are lacking in enterprise
and patriotism, and it is safe to pre-.
dict that the coming Encampment
viii be fully as well conducted as any
similar event in past years.

iNCOMPETENr MINING sUPgRINTEN.
DENTS.

Approved mining camps suffer To a
greater extent from incompetency Of
suparintendents than from any other
cause, and no district in the South
west has been injured more severely
than Globe district, in this respect.
Men Of boundless pretentionS, inCor-
reCtiy reading the rocks and divining
the extent, position and availa aJihty of
mineral deposits, have been sent here
by owners OF mines to uneartb their
treasure, men who were as ignorant
of what was required of them as their
employers; hence the stagnation Of
silver mining in this camp and eonse-
puent belief that Gila county's claim
10 being rich in precious metals was
simply mythical, and that investors
were deluded by SPECTATORS whose
representations were not warranted
by facts. The most conspicuous of
those supermteudents were Fogg,
n
Burbridge, Lennon, Bixby, Mansfield,
Haskins, Beard, Freeman, Clark and
Cooper, who were charged with the
management of the best properties of
the district which, after their depart
ore from the scenes of their operation,
was destruction personifed.
The case to which we win particu-
larly refer is the Silver Era, situate
on Quartzite hill, in this county, which
was sold by General Clinton B, Fisk
to Frances A. Fogg and others, who
placed Sam Fogg in charge of the
property as mining superintendent,
and who only succeeded in wreckipg
tha company through his mismanage-
ment. After running a tunnel Aanked
by ore on either side, without diScoY-
ering it, he reported to his father that
what purported to be mlne was no
mine at all, which resulted IN the ar
rest Of Fisk, through the action of the
elder Fogg, for swindling. A trial
was had, and an acquittal followed: ::
Through neglect to do the required
animal assessment work, the mine
fell into other hands and is now, re-
garded as of great value, is paying
mine, and from present indications is
likely to prove a bonanza.

STRANGER THAN The STRANGE

STRANGER ia AN TIE STRANGE
Among the Cumberland MouL-
tains in Van Buren, Co., tennessee,
exists NEST remarkable freak Of
nature. Near Holders Station lives
a young girl of IS years. Her head
Is covered with sunny hair, and
her face is well formed. She is full
Of life, winning and attractive IN
manners. She is not highly educa-
ted, yet her strong intelligence i'm
presses you that she IS above the
average.
The startling wonder about this
lady is that she is covered from
head to foot with scales like a. fish.
At some distance from her you can
not perceive anything unnatural;
but, upon approaching close you can
discover well defined scales upon
her hands and face.
The scales on her brow are small
but grow larger as they descend.
Her home has been provided with
an underground chamber which is
kept wet. During dry or warm
weather, she STAYS IN this room.
Her NATURES so closely akin to the
fish that she would die, if put in
dry atmosphere. Her breathing
machine calls for watery air, and
will cease to work without il. The
shape and color Of her eyes are fish.
Her eye~lids do not wink. She is
an eighth wonder of the world.
This is no Fish Story. Write to
the sheriff of Van Buren, County
and get the facts.
